camrelizumab combined with apatinib for recurrent resistant gtn

Conditions: Gestational Trophoblastic Disease

Summary: this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of camrelizumab plus apatinib in patients with high-risk chemo-refractory or relapsed gtn.

apatinib is an oral small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor that selectively binds to and inhibits vegf receptor 2. novel immunotherapy using the immune checkpoint inhibitors such as anti-pd-1 antibody has received much attention. camrelizumab as one of the anti-pd-1 drug have impressive clinical activity.
